6 years agoBoston Celtics center Al Horford had a monster performance Tuesday night against the Philadelphia 76ers, making his presence known all over the court. The veteran center scored 23 points on 9-for-16 shooting, including going 3-for-5 on the deep ball. On top of the offensive efficiency, Horford tallied eight boards -- a game-high four of which were offensive -- five assists and four steals. The four steals led to him keeping his counterpart Joel Embiid in check during the game and having the second highest defensive rating in the game. Horford looks to stay hot against the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday night in a series that he is only averaging 7.5 points in this year.--Matthew.McGough
